I'm confused over whom this headline is actually trying to insult. I think it's suffering from the same sort of problem that small, rat-like dogs suffer from when they run in a vicious little circle and bark at everything within a ten-foot radius. They're already somewhat ridiculous creatures anyway, so the disparate, frantically unfocused nature of their barking simply enhances their essential absurdity. Were they to focus on one target, and remain stationary and direct a sustained volley of barking at that target (perhaps bouncing up and down on the forelegs every now and then to demonstrate passion and conviction), they would seem, at least, committed and determined and might even move up from ridiculous/absurd to only mildly amusing. Don't be a distracted terrier, subby. Be a focused one.

/Lean basement-dweller.

I've pretty much always been skinnier when I lived alone than I have been when I've lived with someone else. Mainly because I've always seemed to be broke whenever I was living alone.

When I was separated from my ex-wife, I got down to the same waist size that I had in high-school.

As usual Pocket Ninja is exhibiting the standards of brilliance well known to all who matter.

The simple fact is once you're shacked up or whatever it is you're doing you're completely off the market and don't have to try as hard.

same here, and i have an ultrafast metabolism. my gastronomic capacity knows no satiety.

i seriously could eat any of you under the table, (not in speed, but in endurance)...i just cant gain weight. in fact, im UNDERweight and cant seem to get it up.

I lost ten pounds after my ex left me. Does that count?

Actually, I did notice that I ate more and more poorly when I was with him. There actually is an odd sort of pressure to do things together, and so I was eating even when I wasn't hungry, to match his eating patterns. Now that I'm single, I mostly eat when I'm hungry without any sense of obligation to anyone else.

my peener is fine. i meant my weight up.

Makes sense, actually... when I was single, I would skip a lot of meals... now that I have a family, we sit down together and eat together, so we tend to eat 3 meals a day....

When I was single though, some days I would only eat once a day. Now, not so much.

So, like I said, makes sense.

yeah, im the same. when i cook for others, or eat with others, i care about the food im ingesting. but im by myself 99.999999% of the time, and i dont eat..i just put sustenance in my mouth and swallow. ive been in a rut lately and been kinda uber depressed so...

i have no eating disorder...just a mental disorder. i have no food fears, but i didnt eat yesterday and today i just had a bag of boiled rice, no toppings.

i havent been hungry lately, but normally, i eat like a garbage compactor.

I'd recommend a novel solution, much like jonathan swift's wonderful proposal. Get the roommates together, and have a "no one leaves until we do a week's worth a meth" lock-in. Those houseguests remaining after a week, will most likely be thinner*

_{*some complications may include temporary changes in vision, the ability to rob 3 liquor stores in a single bound, activity-related arrests, and thinking things are much more interesting than they actually are.}

/And thanx for all the agreement on the lonely girl thing

Wrong_Intentions: thanx for all the agreement on the lonely girl thing

Actually, the "lonely girl thing" is full of shiat. A girl can get sex whenever she wants; loneliness is a totally different thing altogether.

Yeah, this has been my experience. Moved away to school and dropped 50lbs, moved back in because I couldn't find a job and gained 60lbs. Moved back out and have lost 50lbs so far...

It's really just easier to watch what you eat when you can control everything in the kitchen, and what you cook, and what goes on your plate. (Mom has a nasty habit of dishing out a plate for me to be nice... piled high with like 3 servings of everything.)

Actually, I lost weight after my fiance moved in. He gained some, but he'd lost way too much during the brief period post-college when he was eating his own cooking. (What is with engineers and biscuits? It was like Captain Hamster and the Fridge Full of Condiments, making a batch of pellets to eat once a week.) He's probably healthiest at around 150, given his height, but he weighed a straight hundred when he moved in with me.

I introduced him to such delicacies as steak n' eggs, homemade hash browns, poulet Jacqueline aux fromage en croissant, apple tarts made from utter scratch including local apples and honey and, of course, my grandmother's exquisite home microbrew. (It compares favorably to Guinness Extra Stout, but with a kind of Blackberry Witbier aftertaste.) Every evening was a new feast, and when he saw how I managed to run what looked to him like an in-home restaurant on $60 a week, there was much rejoicing. He gained back twenty pounds in two months and was able to resume weightlifting in addition to his usual must-level-up Geek Cardio regimen.

He taught me to like jogging, partly through clever conditioning and positive (sexual,) reinforcement. I lost the same twenty pounds, though it took me closer to five months, and weight is continuing to come off, albeit slowly. I'm more impressed with the improvement in my level of energy and how far I can run these days -as well as the bizarre genetic quirk that keeps the weight loss from affecting certain regions. My cup size has not changed, but the rack definitely looks different. DD on a 160lb/5'7" is no big deal, but the same bosom on a 138lb/5'7" looks just a bit ridiculous.

Still, if it makes him happy and he doesn't mind ordering sports bras from specialty shops and the Internet...

I would agree.

when i was single, I used to run every day. Now that I'm living with the fiance, I don't tend to do this. Life seems to get more full when you live together, and you don't fight boredom as much (I used to run for something to do).

[Agree]

Had a new boyfriend for 13 weeks now. He eats meat and junk food, but no veggies. There are multiple bags of potato chips in his apartment. He also makes more than I do, so he likes to eat out all the time. He wants to meet up all the time, so I have only been going to the gym 2x/week.

Bad habits have been creeping in. It's so easy to go with the flow. Last week, I had to assess the eating situation and instil some firm rules in my brain.

Watch the show Supersize vs Superskinny. Plenty of people say "oh no matter how much I eat i don't gain weight", but it almost never true.

When you start eating 5000-6000 Calories a day you put on pounds, unless you are running 10-15 miles every day.

Seriously, how hard is it to eat a couple of doughnuts a day? That's an extra pound every 5 days. People who complain about being too skinny are full of shiat.

I have lost just over ten lbs. since recently becoming single. I think it has less to do with the fact that I am no longer cooking nice meals for the guy and more to do with my new living arrangement which is in a highly populated urban area. I walk or bike to work half the time and stroll for miles on my days off. Hauling back a load of groceries without a car or hiking uphill a mile in order to get a latte (a guilt-free latte, by that point) makes a difference. Also, I'm less inclined to snack when I'm bored since I can just step out my front door and go do several entertaining activities.

I will voice the same sentiment as T-Luv, though. Loneliness blows.

Living with my Ex made me skinny. I did all the shopping, and I'd buy tasty food only to get none of it (unless I ate it within 3 hours of bringing it home from the store and/or hid it). I eventually stopped, since she was getting fat and I wasn't even getting to enjoy the snacks I bought for US.

As she got fatter, I grew more and more aware of what we were both eating. Figured I would vocalize being unhappy about our physical condition and started to lose weight. Lead by example sort of thing... Instead of getting into shape with me, she resented that I was losing weight and she was setting personal records.

I think this only applies to single guys. As a single guy, I eat just what I need to survive. Single women over 25 eat copious amounts of ice cream and cake on a nightly basis.

I checked dunkin donuts and krispy cream they both seemed to range between 200 and 400 calories per doughnut. 2 apple fritters a day would be 800 calories, 7 days a week would be an additional 5600 calories or about 1.5 pounds.

Maybe they're counting guys in POW camps.

I know skinny people get no sympathy on this issue, but seriously, for some people it is very difficult to gain weight.

6000 calories a day sounds impossible to me. I'm not sure my body is physically capable of that. I'm about 15 lbs underweight, I eat what I want, whenever I'm hungry. And maybe I'm mistaken, but I think my appetite and diet are about on par with the average person. Seriously, can someone give me some tips on how to healthily and reasonably consume 6000 calories a day?
